Three Village Soccer
P.O. Box 1553
Stony Brook, NY 11790
The Three Village Soccer Club and Stony Brook Travel Teams originated in 1979. The Club primarily serves the Three Village area consisting of Stony Brook, the Setaukets and Old Field on the north shore of Long Island. The goal of the Club is to provide quality soccer training and play opportunities to the boys and girls of the Three Village Area. The Club is an outspoken advocate of high quality soccer played in a context of good sportsmanship and respect for the Laws of the Game.Club soccer programs include Travel (U9-U19), Traveling Intramural (grades 7-12), and Intramural (grades Pre-K-6). In the Travel Soccer program, 30 teams compete in the Long Island Junior Soccer League and various premier leagues. The Club presently enrolls approximately 2100 children in its programs, making soccer the largest youth organization in the community.
The Soccer Club has a solid history of contributing to quality soccer outside of Long Island and prides itself in its philosophy and innovation. In 1992, the local Ward Melville Boys’ High School team, consisting of players almost entirely trained by the Soccer Club, were New York State Champions. An even higher profile was achieved by Mark Semioli who played defender for the New York MetroStars in Major League Soccer. Much of Semioli’s youth play was on a Stony Brook Travel Soccer team. Tim Kaleita, also trained by Travel Soccer, played with the USISL Cape Cod Crusaders and now coaches at the college level. Perhaps most important to the maturation of soccer in the Club has been the implementation of “micro soccer,” the Club being one of the first on the Island to institute 3 v 3 play for its youngest players.
Critical to the development of the soccer program in the Three Village area has been the support received by the Club from the State University of New York at Stony Brook. In 1982, three fields were built by the Club on University property for use by the Stony Brook Travel Teams. In 1996, the Club was able to consolidate all activities onto a single 27 acre Soccer Park which it maintains on University property. The Club is proud to have achieved this wonderful arena for community and regional soccer largely through the assistance of many volunteers who have donated time, labor, equipment and money toward this ongoing Soccer Park project. Recognition of the Club’s strong commitment to regional soccer development has been recognized nationally by a substantial award to the Club for facilities development by the United States Soccer Federation Foundation in 1997.
